Because of your enthusiasm about snaps, I feel I should tell you: my kid is young enough that they haven't figured out how to snap their fingers, but they do want to.
Instead of using the potential energy of bracing their middle finger against their thumb and then letting it become kinetic energy until it impacts the heel of their hand, they just tap their index finger against their thumb and, if challenged, say "well, that's the way I want to do it."
It's very cute. I'm aware this wasn't the point of your post but it's the first thing I thought when I saw the title and I wanted to share.
edit: Despite my nonsequitur, I am very glad you got a new tool / toy!
I was very confused at the start of this comment, but thanks for the cute story! ๐คฃ
My pleasure. Thanks for being understanding about the subject change.
